When we hiked up to the castle ruins, I still took 1 photo of the hotel. A short time later, the forest filled with smoke. As it turned out later, the hotel was burning. The photos were taken later on the descent (way back).

The path along the wild Endert River is indeed a bit wild in places, and some bridges need to be repaired. But you'll find peace and quiet here, with hardly any people around and beautiful, narrow paths with the sound of the river. Pure relaxation.🥰

The Endert Valley is ideal for hiking, thanks to the diverse landscape and the Endert stream. Unfortunately, the only remaining restaurant is Goebels Mill, where hikers can stop for a break.
